Publisher's Synopsis

A timely intervention on climate change from the author of the hugely influential The Weather Makers.

The tools required to avoid a climate disaster already exist. Between emissions cuts and emerging technologies, we can do it. Here Professor Tim Flannery introduces us to the innovative new solutions being developed around the world, which work with the Earth's systems to combat climate change - and could safeguard our future.

'An important voice in the debate on global warming' Josh Glancy, Sunday Times

'Balances the difficult business of raising alarm about the dangers ahead with proposals for the types of action we need to take now to head off catastrophe tomorrow' Robin McKie, Guardian

'If you're not already addicted to Tim Flannery's writing, discover him now' Jared Diamond

'Thoughtful, candid and - yes - ultimately upbeat, Atmosphere of Hope could not be more timely. It is just the book the world needs right now' Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction
